If you are going to donate to a food bank, I strongly encourage giving cash. Most food banks have immense purchasing power and can turn $1 into multiple meals.

FOOD BANK DIRECTOR: “For every meal a food bank provides, the SNAP program provides 9. There’s no way we can meet that gap. We were not built to do this.”

(@TNDemocrats are imploring @GovBillLee to fund SNAP with the billions in reserves as other states are, but he refuses)

The depth of the shame of a country this wealthy and abundant allowing its people to go hungry is impossible to measure. The fact that a handful of people could fix this by paying their fair share of taxes while still remaining obscenely wealthy makes it even worse.

Over 71 million Americans are paid less than a living wage, and are forced into social safety nets like SNAP.

If you think too many people are receiving SNAP benefits, don’t shame them.

Shame their employers paying them poverty wages and forcing taxpayers to subsidize the rest.

Please donate to your local food banks if you’re able.

Firing an entire federal arts commission to clear the path for your own triumphal arch? It’s a textbook indicator of authoritarian executive overreach — the exact trend we warned about in our assessment.

Trump on sending troops into American cities: “If I want to enact a certain act, I’m allowed to do it…And I’d be allowed to do whatever I want…And the courts wouldn’t get involved. Nobody would get involved. And I can send the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines.”

In Portland, Oregon, masked ICE GOONS abducted and vanished US citizen Gonzalo Catalan last week. Tragically, his family remains unaware of his whereabouts and has not received any communication from him as of today.

A failing society is one that demands people starve in order to uphold arbitrary and socially constructed ideas of normalcy, value, and worth.

We need to reject the idea that anyone at all must work to "earn" the right to eat and live.

Nicely done

Ever since the Newt Gingrich era, I’ve seen Republicans repeatedly shut down the US government and the media always treats it as a failure of negotiation instead of recognizing that conservatives don’t WANT a government. Sarah Kendzior lays it out here 👇🏼
